Art Therapy and Mental Health Diversity and Impact of Dance Occupational Therapy Practice and Research

Abstract

The Centre for the Arts in Human Development in Montreal has provided art, drama, music, and dance/movement therapies to adults with developmental disabilities for over 10 years with the goals of developing and enhancing self-esteem, social skills, and communication abilities. This report describes the development and purpose of the center, sustainability challenges, and efforts made to create community both within the center and with the community at large. Recommendations are made for intiating creative arts therapies centers in other locales.
